Lessons learned from 30 years of process safety management.

Résumé

In May 1992, the development and implementation of a Process Safety Management (PSM) standard became a compulsory legally binding national requirement for refrigerated facilities using ammonia as the refrigerant in quantities above 4,535 kg in the United States. The goal of PSM is to prevent catastrophic incidents involving the use of flammable or toxic chemicals, including anhydrous ammonia. This paper provides a high-level overview of requirements for developing and implementing a PSM program. Longitudinal data on incidents and accidents in the United States, as a gross indicator of beneficial outcomes of this regulatory requirement, are presented. Challenges with program implementation and sustained performance are discussed along with recommendations that encourage recognizing collateral benefits that, when recognized, can drive broader positive impacts beyond regulatory compliance.
